5 Bible Verses For College Freshmen
Griffin Paul Jackson Blog

It's undeniable that for the class of 2020, we're in a pretty scary part of life. Many of us have moved in, some have already started classes. We've bought fridges, microwaves, bed skirts, and futons. We see new faces everywhere we go, and we've each likely gained 100 new Facebook friends. Amidst the excitement, there's also undeniable fright. Here are five verses for this crazy, transitional season of life.

1. "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever." Hebrews 13:8

2. "I give you peace, the kind of peace that only I can give. It isn’t like the peace that this world can give. So don’t be worried or afraid." John 14:27

3. "The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him." Psalm 28:7

4. "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Isaiah 41:10

5. "He only is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken." Psalm 62:6

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving.
